BASF Podcast: BASF Podcast: Organic Photovoltaics - Flexible and transparent solar cells

Ludwigshafen (ots) - In this podcast you will learn how organic
photovoltaics helps to produce solar cells with completely new
qualities.

In organic photovoltaics dyes are used that are able to convert
light into electrical energy. Due to the extremely thin photovoltaic
layer, flexible or even transparent organic solar cells can be
produced. For instance, windows could be coated with organic solar
cells and produce electricity.

In this podcast you will learn how organic photovoltaics helps to
produce solar cells with completely new qualities.
